Agreed. I followed Steve's (&amp; Marlin's) advice when refinishing the TTs for my Nova. Emery cloth, Wet/Dry sandpaper, 0000 Steel Wool, etc. However, I had a couple of stubborn stains on the spokes so I painted them. The picture is a little deceiving; they're really more of a flat finish than shown here.
